According to Reuters, the United States on Thursday imposed sanctions on two Ukrainians, one Russian and nine entities in Ukraine and Russia, for Moscow’s annexation of Crimea and related human rights abuses. The sanctions aim to further punish Moscow for its 2014 annexation of Ukraine’s Crimea peninsula and its support for pro-Russian separatists in eastern Ukraine. The sanctions also target companies that the US Treasury has said benefited from the annexation of Crimea.feeds.reuters.com/~r/reuters/topNews/~3/...wochit.com
